Counterfeit People
Counterfeit People by Kamile Lukrecija Lukosiute is a scathing yet intimate reflection on authenticity in an era obsessed with appearances. The phrase “Real money, counterfeit people” dominates the canvas like a social manifesto, its stark lettering bleeding into layers of anguish and irony. Kamile exposes the emotional bankruptcy hidden behind material wealth - a culture where image outweighs essence and sincerity feels obsolete. The work reads as both confession and confrontation, a mirror held to a generation caught between self-worth and performance.
Visually, the painting is a storm of contradictions. Black letters slash through the surface with urgency, while heavy reds explode beneath them like open wounds. Golden undertones shimmer faintly, hinting at the false glamour of what’s being critiqued. The paint drips like time running out, eroding meaning as quickly as it’s written. Kamile’s raw gestural strokes evoke both rebellion and exhaustion - the physical labor of painting becomes a metaphor for the emotional cost of staying real in an artificial world.
In Counterfeit People, Kamile Lukrecija Lukosiute distills her sharp social commentary into something deeply human. The work resists cynicism; it is not simply a rejection of falseness but a yearning for truth that still hurts to touch. Through visceral color and unapologetic text, Kamile captures the uneasy beauty of contradiction - where decay meets desire, and critique becomes confession. It’s a portrait of modern disillusionment, painted not from distance, but from within the storm itself.
